Summer League Recap: Day 8

BATON ROUGE – Cameron Thomas and Jarell Martin took the Summer League stage on the final day of group play in Las Vegas Sunday afternoon.

Cameron Thomas has been the star of Summer League for the past week and he didn’t let up in his final group play game. Thomas started out slow, going 0-4 in the first quarter. For Thomas, that was an outlier and he proved that to be true, going 5-9 with 12 points in the second quarter.

 

Thomas kept his hot hand going in the second half, going off for 22 points, including this dagger-three to give the Brooklyn Nets a 104-100 victory over the San Antonio Spurs.

Thomas ended the game with 36 points, his second 30+ point performance of the summer. After four games, Thomas sits at the top of the Summer League in points per game with 27.0 PPG.
